Does anyone on the list know how or if the new skype works with 
WindowEyes? It's too bad that GW Connect broke when Microsoft 
stopped supporting GW stuff.  Jim WA6EKS

Steve:

I will be sure to download and install the latest version of 
Skype from
skype.com, and will also get the Jaws scripts from

http://www.dlee.org/skype

If there's a better URL for more up-to-date Skype scripts, please 
send it my
way.

Thanks!

Tom,

OIf it was a number of years ago, as mine was, then it just won't 
work.  =
Skype has discontinued supporting older versions.  I think my 
version = was
6.1.  =20

Jaws 16 has scripts in for the latest version of Skype.

Ok, Phil.

That's what I'll do then as well.

Not sure what version is on this machine, since it used to be my 
XYL's
computer, and wee used it a number of years ago to talk to the 
grandkids
when they were in Missouri.

Tom,

I never paid much attention to the current version.  I just went 
to
skype.com and hit download and it updated my older version.

 Phil:

 Can you tell me what the newest version of SKYPE is that you are 
=
using?

 I really need to get up and running on Skype for both personal 
and
 professional reasons.

 It's going to be one of the things on my "to do" list this 
summer once

the
 college teaching year is over.

 Steve and others,

 Apparently my skype was no longer auto updating but I sure like 
the =
look=20
 and
 feel and features of this newer skype.  One thing I failed to 
mention
 =
when
 telling everyone about my camera experience with my nephew 
overseas is
 =

 about
 the sound quality.  My nephew has always been a little scratchy 
=
sounding=20
 and
 the lag time has been uncomfortable to use.  Last night, using 
my =
iPhone,
 the quality of the audio was better than cell phone to cell 
phone and
 =
that
 was with the cameras running.  I've also always liked the echo 
feature
 =
to
 test your microphone when using skype.  My little 20 dollar 
radio =
shack
 desktop microphone I've had for years and years was dead when I 
tested
 =
it.
 I put in a couple of new tripple A batteries, ran the audio 
check echo
 =
on
 skype and it worked fine.  Then our dogs started barking and 
when the
 =
test
 cut off and replayed itself, the dogs heard themselves barking 
and =
cranked
 up even louder; thinking we had new dogs in the house.  I've 
heard a =
lot=20
 of
 ham rag chew round tables with skype video chat groups going as 
they =
talk=20
 on
 the air so they can see each other, too.  I knew a bunch of 
blind hams
 =

 would
 appreciate that bit of information and run right out to get a 
camera.

 Phil.
